The place I work luckily bought the set before I did. I'm sure glad they did because I was not impressed. Unless you need any of thses tools for a quick 20 minute job, or need a tool in a remote place, I wouldn't reccomend them. I'd rather drag out a cord than be running for a new battery every 20 minutes. These tools have their place but unless its just a quick job, I wouldn't go for them.

And yet, only 2 batteries! I have a pile of 18V DeWalt stuff and purchased a bunch of batteries to go with them. You should get one battery for each tool in these "kits" so you could use all the tools without swapping batteries. Always a danged flashlight thrown in - they are a lot cheaper than the other stuff.

NOT a refurb model but NEW. And it came with a free too rebate for which I got the jig saw. Yes I am very proud of this deal. Actually the impact driver in my kit is the new case design with the built in LED light. I didn't realise that Home Depot would match prices, I could done that and not have to wait for shipping (which was free btw). Can anyone beat that deal?
